According to Beijing time on May 15, the warriors are at home to face the challenge of the pioneers. As the first match of the western finals, of course, it is highly watched. The first quarter of the two teams is 27-23, the warriors are leading by 4 points temporarily, and the Shuihua brothers are 1-0 ahead of the pioneers! Curry's 3-point draw in the playoffs. At the beginning of the second quarter, Cole used clay with four substitutes against the Blazers. Is that too much confidence in the bench players? Or contempt for pioneers? But bell and a group of bench players didn't let Cole down and kept the lead.
The second quarter was a bit dull, the score of the two teams was still slightly dominated by the warriors, until the end of the half of the game, curry suddenly broke out with two three points, which changed the atmosphere of the warriors' home fans. Lilard contributed 12 points in the first half and mcclelham 7 points. Such contribution and state can not form a threat to the warriors!
On the warriors' side, curry made 6 of 12 shots in the half, of which 4 of 7 three-point shots contributed 19 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists. Clay felt average, 5 of 14 shots, 1 of 4 three-point shots contributed 11 points. The warriors temporarily led the Blazers by 9 points 54-45.
Cole's trust in the players at the end of the bench also received good results. Jerebko made 3 shots and 3 rebounds in the first half with 7 points, and bell made 2 points and 3 rebounds and 1 assists. His fighting spirit was high on the field, obviously more excited than the main force.
In the third quarter, the warriors once opened the gap to about 17 points, and then there were all kinds of unnecessary mistakes. The Blazers narrowed the gap to single digits. After the third quarter, the warriors were 6 points ahead of the Blazers, and the fourth quarter still gave the Blazers the chance.
But the key fourth quarter, the Blazers did not seize the opportunity to reverse, but was pulled by the warriors more and more points difference, the game also lost suspense early, the game has more than 2 minutes, the Blazers took the lead to admit defeat, replaced the main line-up, the final warriors home 116-94 easily beat the Blazers, the game, the Blazers side mccullham 17 points 3 rebounds, lilard 19 points 4 rebounds 6 assists, harkelis 17 points and 4 rebounds, Kant 10 points and 16 rebounds and 3 assists, hood 17 points and 3 rebounds. It's good for hood to play tonight. He's more stable than the two guns, but the two Gunners don't have a good feeling, which makes the Blazers have no chance to defeat the warriors. The main reason is that the Blazers don't have enough defensive strength and don't put too much pressure on the Warriors.
Look at the warriors' performance, curry has 36 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists, clay has 26 points, 3 assists, 3 steals, green has 12 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks, jerebko has 9 points, 5 rebounds, Rooney has 6 points, 2 rebounds and cook has 8 points. Curry's 3-point shot is 9-for-15, which can be said to be a very easy cover to give curry a chance to shoot. The warriors have 17-for-33 3-points in the game. Is this such a high percentage of hits a Western Conference? It's like the regular season!
At the end of the game, the Trail Blazers players walked out directly. Lilard and mcclelham were obviously unhappy, but there was no way. Who let us not play well tonight?
What about warriors? At the end of the game, curry or sitting on the bench, did not get up to celebrate, why? Obviously not excited!
It's too easy to play in this game. Curry also used backcross twice in the game. Although he made a mistake once, he could see how easy the game was. To tell the truth, there was no pressure on curry for such a victory. He just sat on the bench and slapped his teammates. If the pioneers wanted to make trouble for the warriors, they still had to improve their defensive strength The pioneers can't win the warriors. What do you think?
